Sitting in the heart of Mexico, in the state of Jalisco, lies Guadalajara. This beautiful colonial city is Mexico's second largest metropolis and birthplace of two of Mexico's most iconic emblems, tequila and mariachi. With its cool galleries, Modernist architecture, and forward-thinking cuisine Guadalajara is a cosmopolitan city quickly gaining attention.

Last month my good friend Alba Betancourt of Bottega Stories traveled to Guadalajara, Jalisco, on a work assignment for Secret Supper. She beautifully chronicled her trip through the lens of her camera and is inviting us to relive her trip with her.
